Jeff is the authority in our filed of human service. When I want the right advice and representative Jeff is the only choice.
"I endorse Jeff. Jeff and I have worked on many land use matters where we were on opposing sides and Jeff zealously represented his client, but was always fair, professional, and courteous to me. Jeff is very knowledgeable and is well known for his expertise in the areas of land use law, Fair Housing, and the Americans with Disabilities Act and is a frequent lecturer on these topics. Jeff and I sometimes bounce ideas off of each other to determine in advance what "the other side" might think. I value Jeff's opinion. Jeff and I have worked on state legislation together and also served on civic and professional boards together. Jeff is an outstanding advocate and is very civic-minded."
